While this would work, it's not a solution I would recommend, for two reasons. First off, most transformers exhibit some level of distortion and frequency response issues. They are often, not as perfect as some would have you believe. Secondly, I'm a big believer in simple signal paths, and if I'm not mistaken, the TP's internal dac is balanced, then converted to single ended, then add the transformer to go back to balanced, it just seems like two avoidable conversions. -- DCtoDaylight Audiophile wish list: Zero Distortion, Infinite Signal to Noise Ratio, and a Bandwidth from DC to Daylight ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DCtoDaylight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7284 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82242 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
